In the Sheds Josh Goodhue

Jordan has a kōrero with Blues and Northland representative, Josh Goodhue. The lock kicks the show off talking about the injury he picked up in his side's big result against the Crusaders and their mindset before taking it back to his childhood in Kawakawa (14:37). Unlike most promising schoolboys, he took an unconvetntional route out of high school and spent time in England with the Worcester Warriors academy (22:27). After finishing up overseas he signed with his beloved Taniwha where after two seasons he was back in Auckland for Super Rugby. What isn't common knowledge is Goodhue turned down the first contract offer from the Blues a year earlier, revealing he wasn't quite ready at the time to make the jump (28:39). He also talks about how Tana Umaga and Leon MacDonald differ as coaches while crediting the former for playing a big role in the success we're seeing today (35:42). If you enjoy this yarn, then I'd appreciate if you leave the podcast a review!
